1. Sara tells Michael she is 160 centimeters tall, while Michael says he is 60 inches tall. If there are 2.54 centimeters in an inch, who is taller

Respuesta :

Answer:

Sara is taller than Michael.

Explanation:

Height of Sara = 160 cm

Height of Michael = 60 inches

1 inch = 2.54 cm

Height of Micheal = [tex]60 inches=60\times 2.54 cm=152.4 cm[/tex]

160 cm> 152.4 cm

Sara is taller than Michael.

Sara is taller than Micheal

From the question, there are 2.54 centimeters in an inch.

Given this statement, we can convert Sara's height to inches as follows;

2.54 centimeters makes 1 inch

160 centimeters  = 160 centimeters *  1 inch/2.54 centimeters

= 63 inches

Since Micheal is 60 inches tall, Sara is taller than Micheal.
